What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Mississippi taxes light wine and beer through the Department of Revenue's Alcoholic Beverage Control framework. A manufacturer, wholesaler, distributor, or brewpub must post a bond payable to the State of Mississippi guaranteeing the excise tax it owes — this $10,000 bond is the fixed amount applied to many brewer-and-importer permits.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Mississippi (the obligee). If you fail to remit the excise tax due, the Department can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
By statute the bond for a wholesaler, distributor, or brewpub generally cannot exceed the excise tax estimated to be owed for any sixty-day period, and runs from $5,000 up to $200,000 depending on volume. The $10,000 figure here is the amount tied to this brewer-and-importer permit; if the Department set a different number for you, send it and we will issue it at the same flat 3%.
